How to open XSR file?

Programs to open XSR file

Remember to download programs supporting XSR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of FabTrol MRP with XSR files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XSR file to open in the FabTrol MRP application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the XSR file with the FabTrol MRP application.

Step 3. Update FabTrol MRP to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the FabTrol MRP program, it is possible that FabTrol MRP requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the FabTrol Systems page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XSR file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The XSR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the XSR file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XSR file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected XSR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of XSR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair XSR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use FabTrol Systems help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XSR except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the XSR file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the XSR file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
